Excellent return visit

We had an incredible time at the half Moon Bay resort. This is our second time here and we saw more marine life on the reef off our back porch tha we saw on our paid snorkel excursion. We will continue to return, the staff are excellent. The room is simple and it is great for us, they will also arrange rides to/from the airport.

Absolutely loved our stay at Roatan Halfmoon Resor

This place is a hidden gem -- cozy, peaceful, and clearly very well taken care of. The rooms and grounds were spotless, and everything felt welcoming and comfortable. We had hot water, good AC, and everything we needed within a short walking distance, including restaurants and dive shops. The real highlight was the snorkeling -- just steps from the shore, we found vibrant coral and tons of marine life. No need for a boat trip when you have that right out front! Special thanks to Rene, the owner, who went above and beyond to make our stay smooth and enjoyable. He was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout. Can’t recommend this place more -- would absolutely come back!

This place was excellent. Private beach with a 2-minute walk to the main street. You could not ask for anything better. Hot water and AC work great. The best is the view from the hammocks. Excellent snorkeling right off the property. Highly recommended!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. My favorite was the hammock on the balcony overlooking the ocean. I spent a lot of time relaxing there. The treetops surrounding had small flowers that the hummingbirds frequented. The used to have a restaurant but i was not bothered in the least that it was closed. The owners hooked me up with airport transportation for $30 each way and a private guide, Marvin that took me out snorkeling. The snorkeling was amazing! Everything was within walking distance or $5 water taxi. Woody's grocery is about 2 blocks away for easy access. I would return to say here.

If you are staying on the island and want a tranquil experience this is the resort for you. Most of the cabins on this property are closed along with the restaurant and bar, which makes for the best experience to enjoy the sounds of nature and the overwhelming feeling that this slice of heaven is all for you. That’s right, why have a crowded noisy restaurant and bar where you want to relax? Here at half moon resort you still have the convenience of a two minute walk to all the restaurants and bars you will ever need and still be able to retreat back to your own secluded, very rustic private hideaway. And best of all the owners Renée and a sister are two of the kindest people you’ll ever meet.

Tranquilité et proximité c'est parfait

L'emplacement est vraiment parfait. On a accès au bord de l'eau pour faire du snorkeling en moins d'une minute. L'endroit est paisible et calme. Pour se rendre en ville, c'est une petite marche de 5 min. Réellement bien éclairée et Sécuritaire (nous revenions de manger à la noirceur vers 20h30). Les hôtes sont sympatiques. Les cabines sont très rustiques, rien du superflux. Deux lits, petites tables, petit rangement pour les vêtements, Mini frigo de style bar, une salle de bain avec douche. Air climatisé et ventilateur. Les lits sont moyennement confortable, mais on s'habitue. Juste pour la tranquilité des lieux.. c'est LA MEILLEURE place dans West-end pour dormir. Nous y retournerons certainement. Merci à nos hôtes !

Great as always

This was our fourth trip at Half Moon Bay and it was excellent as always! Great snorkeling access, very walkable to the rest of west end, located on a quiet area within west end. Rooms are simple but clean and have everything that we need.

The rooms are big, clean, A/C worked well. Bathroom is fine and beds are comfortable. Wi-Fi worked well. The hotel does not have a restaurant or other services, but the location is excellent, quiet and right next to the water and it's very easy to go swimming in the protected bay. It's only a short walk to restaurants, grocery store, dive shops and "downtown" West End. The owners are friendly and helpfull.

Half moon bay property is very bare bones. Do not come here wanting to be pampered. The rooms are very basic. No Tv, just a bed, couple end tables and a small fridge to put your water in. With that being said the Staff was super friendly the grounds were clean, the surrounding were very quite a couple blocks from the main town center. It was nice to decompress and spend time in the Ocean which is just feet away from the resort. The snorkeling was great as the reef you can see from your room and walk right out to it. With that being said Half moon bay was exactly what I was looking for to get away from work and recharge with the beauty of the ocean at my toes.
